(3,635 posts)GA will go to Biden, he has a 11k lead and growing, rest of ballots lean blue, etc. Recount won't change much.
AZ is closer, Biden 16k lead (has eroded from a 90k lead as red leaning vote came in), but I think the remaining ballots will lean blue: provisionals, Maricopa from blue districts, Pima (Tuscon, leans blue) has 18k provisionals left. The red vote is punched out and so I think Biden is likely to win by 20k or so.

(3,635 posts)in the congressional races, while blue districts (Gallego, etc) have not - ergo the outstanding ballots should be blue or at least even.
This plus Pima (18k provisionals from blue area) should mean Biden easily holds on.

(15,212 posts)Maybe according to their own internal rules they'll do that anyway, but if a recount is very unlikely to change things (which is true in Georgia), there's no reason not to make a call.

(31,261 posts)officially falling to Biden. They are assholes, that is why we need to keep them from running elections.
